< Acts 3 >
1 And Peter and John were going up at the same time to the temple, at the hour of the prayer, the ninth [hour],
AND it was that as Shemun Kipha and Juhanon ascended together to the temple at the time of prayer, which is the ninth hour,
2 and a certain man, being lame from the womb of his mother, was being carried, whom they were laying every day at the gate of the temple, called Beautiful, to ask a kindness from those entering into the temple,
behold a certain man lame from the womb of his mother, (whom) they carried, who were used to bring and set at the gate of the temple which is called the Beautiful, to beg alms of those who entered into the temple.
3 who, having seen Peter and John about to go into the temple, was begging to receive a kindness.
He, when he saw Shemun and Juhanon entering the temple, prayed of them to give him alms.
4 And Peter, having looked stedfastly toward him with John, said, 'Look toward us;'
And Shemun and Juhanon beheld him, and said to him, Regard us.
5 and he was giving heed to them, looking to receive something from them;
But he regarded them, expecting to receive from them somewhat.
6 and Peter said, 'Silver and gold I have none, but what I have, that I give to thee; in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and be walking.'
Shemun saith to him, Gold and silver I have not, but what I have I give thee: In the name of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha Natsroya, rise and walk.
7 And having seized him by the right hand, he raised [him] up, and presently his feet and ankles were strengthened,
And he took him by his right hand and raised him: and instantly his feet strengthened and his heels.
8 and springing up, he stood, and was walking, and did enter with them into the temple, walking and springing, and praising God;
And he leaped and arose and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and glorifying Aloha.
9 and all the people saw him walking and praising God,
And all the people saw him walking and glorifying Aloha.
10 they were knowing him also that this it was who for a kindness was sitting at the Beautiful gate of the temple, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what hath happened to him.
And they knew that it was he, the beggar, who had sat daily and asked alms at the gate which is called the Beautiful. And they were filled with wonder and astonishment at what had been done.
11 And at the lame man who was healed holding Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch called Solomon's — greatly amazed,
AND as he held Shemun and Juhanon, all the people ran wondering unto them to the portico which is called Of Shelemun.
12 and Peter having seen, answered unto the people, 'Men, Israelites! why wonder ye at this? or on us why look ye so earnestly, as if by our own power or piety we have made him to walk?
And when Shemun saw, he answered and said to them, Men, sons of Israel, why wonder you at this? or why gaze you at us, as by power of ours, or by our (own) authority, we had done this, that this (man) should walk?
13 'The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, did glorify His child Jesus, whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, he having given judgment to release [him],
The God of Abraham, and of Ishok, and of Jakub, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his son Jeshu, him whom you delivered up, and denied before the face of Pilatos, when he had justified (him) and would have released him;
14 and ye the Holy and Righteous One did deny, and desired a man — a murderer — to be granted to you,
but you the Holy and the Just denied, and demanded for you the man the murderer to be given to you.
15 and the Prince of the life ye did kill, whom God did raise out of the dead, of which we are witnesses;
And Him the Prince of life you killed, whom Aloha hath raised from among the dead; and we all are his witnesses.
16 and on the faith of his name, this one whom ye see and have known, his name made strong, even the faith that [is] through him did give to him this perfect soundness before you all.
And by faith in his name, this, whom you see and know, he hath strengthened and healed; and faith which is in him hath given to him this soundness before you all.
17 'And now, brethren, I have known that through ignorance ye did [it], as also your rulers;
Now, however, my brethren, I know that through delusion you did this, as also did your princes;
18 and God, what things before He had declared through the mouth of all His prophets, that the Christ should suffer, He did thus fulfil;
and Aloha, according to that which he had before proclaimed by the mouth of all the prophets, that his Meshiha should suffer, hath fulfilled this.
19 reform ye, therefore, and turn back, for your sins being blotted out, that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord,
Repent therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, and that the times of repose may come to you from before the presence of the Lord;
20 and He may send Jesus Christ who before hath been preached to you,
and he may send to you Him whom he hath ordained for you, Jeshu Meshiha,
21 whom it behoveth heaven, indeed, to receive till times of a restitution of all things, of which God spake through the mouth of all His holy prophets from the age. (aiōn )
whom the heavens must receive until the completion of the times of all those which Aloha hath spoken by the mouth of his holy prophets, who (have been) from of old. (aiōn )
22 'For Moses, indeed, unto the fathers said — A prophet to you shall the Lord your God raise up out of your brethren, like to me; him shall ye hear in all things, as many as he may speak unto you;
For Musha hath said, A prophet shall the Lord raise up unto you from your brethren, like to me; him hear in all (things) which he shall speak with you.
23 and it shall be, every soul that may not hear that prophet shall be utterly destroyed out of the people;
And it shall be that every soul who will not hear that prophet, perish shall that soul from his people.
24 and also all the prophets from Samuel and those following in order, as many as spake, did also foretell of these days.
And the prophets, all of them from Shamuel and they who were after him, spake and proclaimed concerning these days.
25 'Ye are sons of the prophets, and of the covenant that God made unto our fathers, saying unto Abraham: And in thy seed shall be blessed all the families of the earth;
You are the sons of the prophets; and the covenant which Aloha set with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, In thy seed shall be blessed all the generations of the earth,
26 to you first, God, having raised up His child Jesus, did send him, blessing you, in the turning away of each one from your evil ways.'
with you from the first he hath established; and Aloha hath sent his Son, blessing you, if you will return and repent of your iniquities.
